GLOBALG.A.P. Aquaculture Farm Assurers Training in Korea

25 十一月 2016

From 7-10 November 2016, GLOBALG.A.P. provided aquaculture training for future Farm
Assurers at Jeju, Korea. With participants from Korea, China, Morocco, Sweden and Turkey,
the voice of the GLOBALG.A.P. Aquaculture certification system has increased.

The training included both theory and practice in the form of a field visit to an olive flounder
(paralichthys olivaceus) farming facility. This provided an opportunity to learn more about
how good water quality sourcing and good animal welfare practices can enable farmers to provide
fish without any chemical treatment.The farmed fish is of such a high quality that it is consumed
as sushi in local restaurants.

The training was kindly hosted by ISIDOR SUSTAINABILITY RESEARCH INSTITUTE.
